Expect the production RCZ to include similar features to the concept – a 1.6-litre turbocharged engine from the 207 GTi and a six-speed gearbox. This shoots the RCZ from 0-62mph in 7.1 seconds and on to a top speed of 146mph. Despite its power, this engine can also manage an average fuel economy of 42.2mpg. Its CO2 emissions are estimated at 160g/km, placing the car into tax band G at £150 per year. Peugeot describes the RCZ as “an exclusive vehicle which is full of emotion and aimed at enthusiasts.”


A spokesperson said the production RCZ could be heavier than the concept 308. This is because concept cars don’t usually include many of the road-going features such as sound-proofing and interior styling.


The RCZ is Peugeot’s first car not to use a zero or double-zero in its name. Peugeot say this “symbolises its special and unique position within the Peugeot range.”


It will showcase the coupe in its final form at the 2009 Frankfurt motorshow, which begins on 15th September. UK launch will happen in Spring 2010.


The car will go on sale in spring 2010. Its rivals include the Audi TT, BMW Z4 and the forthcoming Honda CR-Z.Source URL: https://newcarscarsrevew.blogspot.com/2009/09/peugeot-rcz-pricing-announced-uk.html
